' i - _. ; From CobbetCs American Gardener. fall sowing op keeiw. It is necessary to ol*serv«, that some, and c ten many things, which are usually sown in the spring, would be better sown in the fall; and especially when wc consider how Wilt tour there is for doing aH things in the spring. Par snips, carrots, beets, anions, and many other things, may be safely sown in the fall. 1 lie Seed will not perish, if covered by the earth. Seed of all plants will he safe in this way all the winter, though tire frost penetrate to the dis tance of three feet beneath them, except the seeds of such plants as a .slight frost trill cut down. T*he seed of kidney beans, for instance,! Will rot , if the ground be not warm enough to, bring it up. So will the seed of cucumbers, me lons, and Indian com, unless buried beyond the: roach of the influence of tire atmosphere. li ven early peas Mould l>e best sown in the fill,; could yon have an insurance against mice. c. all know, what a hustle there is to get in early peat. If they were sown in the fall, they would •tart up the moment the frost was out of the ground, and weald he ten days earlier in bear ing, in spite of every effort made by the spring growers to make their peas overtake them. I p on a spot, where I saved peas for seed, last year, some that was left, in a lock of haulm, at the harvesting, and that lay ujkju the dry ground, till the Uuul was ploughed late in November, umo up, io the spring, the moment the frost was, •ut of the ground, and they were in bloom full Jfteen days earlier than those, sown in the same field as early as possible in the spring. Doubt-: less, they would have borne jieas fifteen days sooner ; but there were but a very few of them, and those standing straggling about; and I was obliged to plough up the ground where they are' growing. In some cases it would he a good; way, to cover this sown ground with Utter , or with leaves of trees, as soon as the frost has fair ly set in ; but not before ; for, if you do it be fore, the seed may vegetate, and then may lie, killed by the frost. One object of this fall sow-, ing is, to get the work done ready for spring ;| for, at that season, you have so many things to, do at once ! Besides you cannot sow the instant j the frost breaks up ; for the ground is wet and; clammy, unfit to be dug, or touched, or trodden upon. So that here are ten days lost. Hut, | the seed which has lain in the ground all the winter, is ready to start the moment the earth is clear of the winter frost, and it is up hy the| time you can get other seed into the ground in a good state. Fall sowing of seeds to come up in the spring is not practised in England, though j they are always desirous to get their things ear- j ly. The reason is, the uncertainty of their | winter, which passes, sometimes, with hardly I any frost, at all; and which, at other times, is severe enough to freeze the Thames over. It is sometimes mild till February, and then se-j vero. Sometimes it begins with severity and] ends with mildness. So that, nine times out of; ten, their seed would come up and the plants would bo destroyed before spring. Besides they have slugs that come out in mild weather, and eat small plants up in the winter. Other insects and reptiles do the like. From these obstacles the American gardener is free. His winter sets in ; and the earth is safely closed ! up against vegetation till the spring. I ami speaking of the north of Virginia, to be sure;! but the gardener to the south will adapt the ob nervations to his climate, us fur as they relate lo it. From the Southern Planitt. SWINE. There is no species of property perhaps lhal requires more of system in its management than that of swine. When a proper system is pur sued with these animals, they are kept with lit tle trouble or expense, and yield a lucrative pro fit. But when a loose system is followed, or perhaps no system at all, instead of a profit, they are found a vexatious and expensive burthen. Hence the reason why so few find the raising of hogs profitable ; and why we hear so many say, it is cheaper to buy meat than to make it. The Planter who is more ambitious to multi ply his cotton bugs than his comforts, and can barely afford to make corn enough for his table, let alone feeding his stock, will find little profit in raising hogs. Unless he can spare enough! time from his cotton fields to put his fences in Order ; and enough of ground to raise them pro visions, he had better at once buy his meat of; the drover, —unless he makes a plenty lo feed ! them upon, there is no philosophy in trying to raise hogs. In embarking into the hog business, ii is of; some importance to the planter to ascertain the' most suitable breed. A kind that would better suit the circumstances of one, may not bo adap ted to the circumstances of another. For in stance, if provender is an object, and it is desir able to produce the greatest number of pigs and roasters from a limited supply of food, you will select one of the smaller breeds, as being much the easiest kept. One breed of hogs will live and keep fat, where another would starve. On the other hand, if vou wish to go the whole shoat 7 • \ for bacon, and corn is so plenty as to be no ob joct, then a larger breed might answer better. Os the former sort, the Guinea, the Chinese, the Berkshire or the Suffolk breed might bo pre-| forred; of the latter, or larger sort, the Hamp shire; the Shropshire, or the Gloucestershire, breed would be selected. A breed of hogs we! have heard highly extolled at the north, is uu improved breed formed from numerous crosses with the Chinese and Leicestershire, Berk •hire, &c. ! The next thing to bo considered, is the pro-! per number to be kept. If you live near a good j range, where hogs can keep fat without much! attention ; or if you make more corn, rye, po- j tatocs, &c. than you can dispose of in any other! way, it matters but little what number you keep; j as it is little more trouble to look after many than after a few. But if you have but a small farm or garden, (or perhaps not that, if you live in town,) the case is altered. Though you may support a pig or two very genteelly, from the offals of vour kitchen and stable, and with •* very little trouble—yet if so situated you should undertake to raise a greater number, you would find it a losing business. Where most of their food has to be purchased, hogs cannot be rais ed to a profit. Much more attention is paid to the manner of fattening hogs at the North than here. There every thing is reduced to a system —and is bro*t as near perfection as possible. Until a few weeks before killing time, they are allowed to, run at large with plenty to eat, of the slops of the kitchen and dairy, and such green food as can be picked up. They are then put in pens, or rather in houses, for in their construction a good deal of taste is often displayed—being gen teel frame buildings, their size corresponding to the number of hogs they fatten, shingled and weatherboarded, with good floor, ventilations, &c. divided into three compartments, one for eating fc another for sleeping, and the third for | their excrement—thro’ which they pass at plea- . sure. Attached, is the cooking apartment, with or boilers, for baking or steaming their * , f H«i—of which Irish |»otaloes form the larncstj j l*orti*'n. After the potatoes nrocleaul\ wusii-j . od and boiled soft, they are thrown into a large] tub or trough, where they are mashed while hot, and a quantity of coarse meal made often of oats and j>e;is ground together, is mixed in. ' It is then allowed to stand two or three days un til it Iwgins to turn sour, before it is fed out. Os this hogs eat very greedily, and fatten fas ter than on com, and at a less expense. Whetlier any profitable substitute could be found for fattening hogs at the South, for corn, we are not prepared to say. As the weather is milder than at the North, they may l>e kept e-1 iqually comfortable in less expensive houses. — They should have a shed to protect them from the rain, with a plenty of dry straw, and a pen i proportioned to the number you fatten. U'e should he glad to hear the results of ex )!perirnents in fattening hogs on sweet potatoes, : Ixtiled or raw—on corn meal, boiled corn, Ac. j dec. i THELAI>\ ’S BOOK.

It is a lively picture of life and manners, drawn with : great skill and discrimination, and a strict fidelity to na ture. We venture to predict for it a tribute of general |j applause. ; Among the other stories submitted in competition, there are many of great merit. Those would have been special ly noticed and commended by the committee, but tor obvious reasons such a course was considered unadvis able. They will be published in the succeeding numbers jof our work, as opportunity may offer. We hope to make the October Number of the Lady’s || Book superior t o any of its predecessors. In addition to j the Prize Tale, it will contain several spirited original Ij articles, In order still further to improve the book, we i have employed a young artist, whose present performan , ccs give brilliant promise of future distinction, lo sup.

We have also in course of ! preparation the portraits of several distinguished in -1 dividuals. ; We take this occasion to remind our friends that the I edition we are printing of the current volume, does not i far exceed the actual number of subscribers, audit will i therefore be necessary for those who wish complete setts, to made early application.

The former Editor of the “ Southern Spy* M. Smith, and Doctor J. B. Monroe, intend to commence the pub lication of a Political Newspaper, in the month of Octo ber next, in the Town of Lawrenceville, Gwinnett conn, ty, Georgia, to be entitled T2£E LAWRSITCEVZXaXaE HERALD. The dense population of this and the adjoining coun ties, and the almost certain fact of the immediate occu pation, by the people of Georgia, of the Cherokee coun try, fully justify the establishment of a Preoci in this sec tion of the State. The Political doctrine of the HERALD will bo ac cording to the policy and interest of Georgia, as regards State Rights, and the propriety of the rcmuViJ ot all the Indians of the South.—The South-Car.dina doctrine ol indiscriminate Nullification will not bo supjKirled by tire Herai.o—but the reserved rights of the States will be pled us the best method of preserving tho confederated Union. The Herald, in all other cases, shall be a perfectly free and neutral paper—lts columns shall bo open al ways for the discussion of all political questions that may be agitated by either of the political parties in Geor gia—not the least preference shall bo given to either ot. thein.—Tho subscribers to the HeraLd shall tutjoy the full and uncommon privilege of reading in the same pa- 1 per both sides of all political questions and movement*, j of importance, not only in Georgia, but in every oi | the Union. Our motto shall be Pro et Con. The Herald will vindicate the Rights of Man—ofia sulted justice—injured innocence—defamed reputation, and the cause ot morality—but will have nothing to do with Theological or Religious controversy—this is the business of the Clergy. A summary view will be given every week in the- Herald of all important events that may transpire hi the world, as we may collect it from the Newspapers ot the United States and from Europe. The location of the Herald in the vicinity of the Che rokee country and the Golden Mines, will enable us to give all the Indian and Golden News from that region. But few persons, it is hoped, in this and the adjoining counties, will refuse to patronize the Herald, ns there hy much money may be retained in this section that now goes abroad for Newspapers and other prints. Most excellent facilities are now afforded by tho fre quency of the mails to this place, of obtaining the ear liest news from Milledgeville, Augusta, Savannah, Charleston, New-York, and the other northern cities, and of disseminating the same by the Herald, to every section. CONDITIONS : I-—The Herald will he printed every Wednesday on a super-royal sheet, on good paper and typo. ll.—Price per annum, will be §2 in advance, at the time of subscribing, paid to M.

F. White & William Hagai’, £& ESPECTFULLY inform the Printers of the ■ ‘A United States, to whom they have long been in. j dividually known as established Letter Founders, that: they have now formed a co-partnership in said busi- j ness, and hope from their united skill, and extensive ! i experience, to be able to give full satisfaction to all i who may favor them with orders. j i The introduction of machinery, in place of the tedious! and unhealthy process of casting type by hand, long a ; ' desideratum by the European and American Founders, | i was, by American ingenuity, and a heavy expenditure ■ of time and money on the partof our senior partner, first i successfully accomplished. Extensive use ot the rna. i chine cast letter, has fully tested and established its. superiority, in every particular, over that cast by the old process. 1 lie Letter Foundry business will hereafter he ear-' 1 ried on by the parties before named, under the firm of 1 -HI lE, HAGAR and Co.
